  1. Yes, the feel, the hunch, the presumption, the gut feeling, and all of those adj's get my point nicely along...........moreso, aircraft do have fatigue lifes, and little data is available for the strakes on the ez
  2. Yes, the drop test was performed..........on an EZ??NO:envy:
  3. The "Feelings" I was referring to were those abnormal times when on flair there seems to be this demi-god that wishes to slam both you and your aircraft firmly on the tarmac with design challenging force. Somehow the fuse only appears to be able to distribute this force evenly across the airframe, the strakes I don't know:confused:
  4. Does anyone have a rough estimate on the weight impact of the Berkut style retractable gear? (kinda like the aesthetics of the infinity but I feel they would not deal with a hard landing as well as the berkut).......not to mention that they went kind of wild with carbon fiber on the skins of the berkut.
  5. I am finishing up the initial stages of my long ez project. I have the bulkheads complete and waiting on the sticks for the fuse. I am interested in speed mods in an effort to acheive a moderately fast aircraft capable of withstanding cruising speeds in excess of 250kts. (the engine part is simple, I just want to know what structural mods would be prudent to implement in regards to the increased speed)...............waited too long for the infinity, which don't seem to be getting off the ground:(

    berkut

    looking for a comprehensive set of plans for berkut, also need +/- g factor ratings for wings and if kevlar would enhance this figure if added?
